What Can I Expect

Get creative on a furniture upcycling course! These online workshops are hosted by talented upholsterer Juliette Goggin and she'll show you how to repurpose those unwanted bits of furniture in no time!

Juliette's background is in product design and development, but her first love is recycling vintage goodies found at car boots, to give them a new lease of life. A popular broadcaster, you may have seen Juliette on Channel 4s show ‘Super Scrimpers' and she has also penned books about furniture upcycling and upholstery and crafting.

Unwanted, abandoned, out of fashion and scruffy. Upcycling is all about taking forgotten pieces of furniture and turning them into something to be used and loved all over again. It's massively satisfying when you've transformed that old chair into a wonderfully comfy fireside armchair. And it's environmentally friendly too.

During your online workshop you will learn the key techniques of decoupage and recovering, both used a lot when recycling, rounded off with a session on making designer vintage cushions. There's also an essential upcycler's kit list, which includes tailor's chalk, tape measure, scissors, wadding, masking tape, push pins, a hammer and tacks or a staple gun.

With the correct materials and the teaching from expert Juliette, you've got everything you need to embark on your own furniture upcycle project. If you go for the Expert option, you'll get personal advice and support from Juliette, who'll give you feedback as you work on your recycled piece.

Book your place on this accessible-to-all furniture upcycling course online and get ready to scour those auctions, bric-a-bracs and flea markets to bag yourself that unloved piece you'll be breathing new life into thanks to the creativity and teaching skills of host Juliette!
